Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) - Introduce yourself and meet others

Let's talk about living with rheumatoid arthritis.
As moderator of the Autoimmune Diseases group, I noticed that several people were talking about RA, but those conversations were scattered throughout the community. I thought I would start this discussion to bring us all together in one place.

Let’s grab a cup of tea, or beverage of choice, and let's chat. Why not start by introducing yourself?

@tisme I was going great with Sulfasalazine, which sorted my GI issues out well until that caused me visual disturbances (lightening flashes in corner of one eye) and blurred vision. I am about to start HCQ instead! Now I’m concerned. Unable to get an emergency eye appointment too, to check my eye issue was due to Sulfasalazine. I haven’t got any good advice for you other than to keep asking for something else to try, but I empathize completely. Good luck.
